Band of Outsiders Fall 2010

FFD's!!

Hello everyone. Ok so this is the Band of Outsiders clothing line... and I'm not really a fan. I do appreciate the hobo style and I love the background where the shots were taken, looks like they went out camping hahaha. Sadly I liked 5 looks out of 39. It was all so cliche, I'll explain: plaid shirts, blazers, same hats, button down shirts. What I do like is the funny beast-like shoes in the fifth picture. It is so awesome, so creative. If they continue in that road then they'll be worth being called a clothing line.

Calvin Klein Fall 2010

FFD's!

Ok imma be honest here. I don't really enjoy Calvin Klein... sorry. His work is so cliche, he always does the same thing, same colors, same style and theme.
EX: I guess he specifies in suits, leather jackets, trench coats and blazers. lol

Calvin please push yourself to the extreme bro!!

Anyway I was surprised when I ended up finding around 5 looks out of 45 I ended up liking. Ridiculous.

This style is fresh, I like it. (Notice that they are all the same style. WOW!) Neck pieces are in.

A Moment

FFD's! Yup I cut my own hair... aint that cool? haha Why and how I began doing this? Well, I hated going to the barber shop filled with toxic guys which didn't know crap about fashion. In return I got some cliche haircut without a fashion-forward style. Barbers don't know what models are rocking in the latest fashion show. So I took it upon myself to cut my own hair. At times I make mistakes but perfection comes with time lol. -MIG

Bespoken Fall 2010

FFD's!

Here is Bespoken Fall 2010 collection. I liked 5 out of 19... that is horrible. These here are seriously the best ones out of the collection, trust me! Everything else seemed so overrated, done before, completely old. So c'mon fashion designers push mens fashion to an extreme damn it!! Someone did and it got him really far, and that was late Alexander McQueen. The reason why he was so big was because he constantly pushed fashion. His mens line was BANANA'S!! lol So creative, so futuristic.. Lets take mens fashion where its never been before.

R.I.P Alexander McQueen




NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

FFD's!

This is serious people, today we have lost a brilliant man. ALEXANDER MCQUEEN passed away today FEB 11, 2010 :'(

"The Associated Press reported that the circumstances of the death indicated a possible suicide; Police have stated that the death was not suspicious, but have not confirmed that the death was a suicide."

I can't believe this crap, damn it!! He was so creative, so talented. He showcased his imagery through his AMAZING fashion shows. His clothes were the keys to his parallel universe. He allowed us to enter his world and I thank him. Enough said.
I thank him for giving me something to talk about, for giving us great shows and amazing clothes, for giving inspiration, and for being fears without a care in the world.

Now I'm sad...

Alexander McQueen F/W 2010

Hi FFD'S!!

Like always here are my favorite picks from this collection. Todays designer is the amazing Alexander McQueen. That guy is a genius! Look at the pants- wow! I love the weird cut in the bottom of the trousers, aren't they cool? The gloves were nice too, and the ninja mask's are brilliant... but then again it is Alexander McQueen (DUHH) lol. I love how the collection is so cohesive, and the prints so futuristic and almost reptile like. I always like to describe McQueens work as clothes found in a dark parallel universe-- Ohh creepy. Who knows what emerges from those dark horizons?

Love the song... kinda creepy right? I'm telling ya is his "Dark Parallel Universe."

The new shoe trend for guys is BOOTS!! YEAY!
About time this came back right? I am so happy.

Here's a tip from GQ:

Don't wear trousers with boots. No, no, no! That is a BIG fashion don't. Stick with jeans guys!

Giverchy Fall 2010

Hi people,

When I first glance upon this collection let me tell you that I didn't really like it. But I will admit that it kinda grew on me over a short period of 3 hours lol.
The sandals are a bit "eh/ah" but if you really think about it and look at it in a different light, it is definitely breaking the heavy chains that is holding back mens style. Please look at it with a open mind.

Ugly Obsession

People!!

I am seriously hooked on Ugly Betty!!! I can't stop watching it! haha that's how good the show is, literally. I recommend it to everyone, and to anyone who like me never gazed eyes upon this fantastic show when it first aired. I know we're a little late, and Ugly Betty is now going into its 5th Season but the good thing about that is that we won't have to wait until the next episode, youtube it :) Hey, if you are in for a little laugh, inspiration, fashion and self empowerment then grab some Sunchip's and watch this show! Ugly Betty has become so personal to me. The show captures the true essence of the all-time-Spanish family [for once] living in the city of New York which always come together at the end of the day with one thing ingrained in their mind, the # uno rule in the 'Hispanic Code of Life,' "family sticks together." Amen! Thank God for this show, about time something represented me- a "fashionable geek" lol. Plus I love the fact that the Editor-In-Chief is a dude! He is not so much the most fashion-forward dude there is but it still enlightens me with hope. GQ here I come!!

Dries Van Noten Fall 2010

Out of a collection of 43 I only liked 5... wow, sorry Mr. Van Noten but that is just pathetic : / Stop cutting off the sleeves from Pea coats and trend coats!!!
